We calculate the dominant three body Higgs decays, $H \to W^+W^-(Z^0, \gamma)$ and $H \to t\overline{t}(Z^0,\gamma ,g)$, in the Standard Model. We find that the branching ratios of these decays are of the order of few percent for large…

We present the computation of the leading one-loop electroweak radiative corrections to the non-standard top quark decay width Gamma(t->H+ b), using a physically motivated definition of tan(beta). We find that the corrections are large,…

We analyze the unconventional top quark decay mode t -> H^+ b at the quantum level within the context of general Two-Higgs-Doublet models by including the full electroweak effects from the Yukawa couplings. The results are presented in the…

The recent Tevatron result on the top quark forward-backward asymmetry, which deviates from its standard model prediction by 3.4$\sigma$, has prompted many authors to build new models to account for this anomaly. Among the various…

We update the Standard Model (SM) predictions for the branching ratios of the rare top-quark decays $t \to cg(g)$, and evaluate the maximum rates that can be reached in the aligned as well as in the four conventional two-Higgs-doublet…

In this paper, we calculate the top quark rare decay t-ch in a supersymmetric extension of the standard model where baryon and lepton numbers are local gauge symmetries. Adopting reasonable assumptions on the parameter space, we find that…

The heaviness of the top quark makes its 2-body decay mode $t \to bW^+$ to be dominant, at such level that hardly any other decay mode reaches a detectable branching ratio (BR) within the SM. Here we study the decay $t \to bW^+\ell^-\ell^+$…

The large value of the top quark mass implies that the rare top decays $t \rightarrow b W^+ Z, s W^+ Z$ and $d W^+ Z$, and $t \rightarrow c W^+ W^-$ and $u W^+ W^-$, are kinematically allowed decays so long as $m_t \ge m_W + m_Z + m_{d_i}…

The apparent excess of $Z \rightarrow b \bar b$ events at LEP may be an indication of new physics beyond the standard model. However, in either the two-Higgs-doublet model or the minimal supersymmetric standard model, any explanation would…

We investigate the possibility of observing the exotic decay mode of the top quark into the lightest stop ($\tilde t_1$) and neutralino ($\tilde\chi^0_1$) in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with R-parity at the upgraded Tevatron.…

If $c$ and $t$ quarks are strongly mixed with a weak singlet charge $2/3$ quark, $BR(t\to \ell\nu + X)$ could be suppressed via the $t\to cH^0$ mode, thereby the top quark could still hide below $M_W$, whereas the heavy quark signal…

We analyze the two decays $\thb$, $\tstn$ within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with radiative breaking of the electroweak sector. We discuss their detectability at present and in the eventuality that supersymmetry is not…

A complete calculation of the rare three-body decay t --> c h gamma is presented in the framework of the standard model. In the unitary gauge, such a calculation involves about 20 Feynman diagrams. We also calculate this decay in the…

We discuss the three-body decays stop_1 -> W^+ b neutralino_1, stop_1 -> H^+ b neutralino_1, stop_1 -> b slepton_i neutrino_l, and stop_1 -> b sneutrino_l l^+$ ($l =e,\mu,\tau$) of the lighter top squark within the minimal supersymmetric…

The decay t -> c V (V=\gamma, Z, g) process in the mirror twin Higgs models with the colorless top partners are studied in this paper. We found that the branching ratios of these decays can in some parameter spaces alter the standard model…

Rare two-body decays of the top quark into a neutral bottom-quark meson plus an up- or charm-quark: $t\to {\overline B}^0+ u, c$; $t\to {\overline B}^0_{s}+ c,u$; and $t \to \Upsilon(nS)+ c,u$, are studied for the first time. The…

We compute the t->WZb decay rate, in the Standard Model, at the leading order in perturbation theory, with special attention to the effects of the finite widths of the W and Z bosons. These effects are extremely important, since the t->WZb…

In the littlest Higgs model with T-parity (LHT), the mirror quarks have flavor structures and will contribute to the top quark flavor changing neutral current. In this work, we perform an extensive investigation of the top quark rare…

We survey all possible supersymmetric three-body decays of the top quark in the framework of the MSSM and present detailed numerical analyses of the most relevant cases. Although the two-body channels are generally dominant, it is not…

I present the latest results from the CDF and D0 collaborations on top quark production (single top and top quark pair production) at the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider at sqrt(s) =1.96 TeV, measurements of the top quark decay…
